We study equivariant projective compactifications of reductive groups obtained by closing the image of a group in the space of operators of a projective representation. We describe the structure and the mutual position of their orbits under…

It is proved that an endomorphism $\varphi$ of a hyperbolic group $G$ satisfies a H\"older condition with respect to a visual metric if and only if $\varphi$ is virtually injective and $G\varphi$ is a quasiconvex subgroup of $G$. If $G$ is…

We prove the existence of equilibrium states for partially hyperbolic endomorphisms with one-dimensional center bundle. We also prove, regarding a class of potentials, the uniqueness of such measures for endomorphisms defined on the 2-torus…

Let $\Gamma$ be a hyperbolic group and G be the isometry group of a Gromov-hyperbolic, properand geodesic metric space. We study the action of the outer automorphism group Out($\Gamma$) onthe set X($\Gamma$,G) of conjugacy classes of…

Totally symmetric sets are a recently introduced tool for studying homomorphisms between groups. In this paper, we give full classifications of totally symmetric sets in certain families of groups and bound their sizes in others. As a…

For convex domains with $C^{1,\epsilon}$ boundary we give a precise description of the automorphism group: if an orbit of the automorphism group accumulates on at least two different closed complex faces of the boundary, then the…

For $i= 1,2$, let $G_i$ be cocompact groups of isometries of hyperbolic space $\Hyp^n$ of real dimension $n$, $n \geq 3$. Let $H_i \subset G_i$ be infinite index quasiconvex subgroups satisfying one of the following conditions: 1) limit set…

A bounded automorphism of a field or a group with trivial approximate centre is definable. In an expansion of a field by a Pfaffian family F of additive endomorphisms such that algebraic closure in the expansion coincides with relative…

Neretin and Segal independently defined a semigroup of annuli with boundary parametrizations, which is viewed as a complexification of the group of diffeomorphisms of the circle. By extending the parametrizations to quasisymmetries, we show…

Belov-Kanel and Kontsevich conjectured that the group of automorphisms of the n'th Weyl algebra and the group of polynomial symplectomorphisms of C^2 are canonically isomorphic. We discuss how this conjecture can be approached by means of…

We establish new results on the weak containment of quasi-regular and Koopman representations of a second countable locally compact group $G$ associated with non-singular $G$-spaces. We deduce that any two boundary representations of a…

A model describing cell membranes as optimal shapes with regard to the $L^2$-deficit of their mean curvature to a given constant called spontaneous curvature is considered. It is shown that the corresponding energy functional is lower…

We develop the theory of $L^2$-torsion of an automorphism of a group and compute it for every automorphism of a group which is hyperbolic and one-ended relative to a finite collection of virtually polycyclic groups. We also prove a…

This paper concerns the general problem of classifying the finite deterministic automata that admit a synchronizing (or reset) word. (For our purposes it is irrelevant if the automata has initial or final states.) Our departure point is the…

This paper concerns the notion of a symmetric algebra and its generalization to a quasi-symmetric algebra. We study the structure of these algebras in respect to their hull-kernel regularity and existence of some ideals, especially the…

We show that every reductive subgroup of the automorphism group of a quasi-smooth well formed weighted complete intersection is a restriction of a subgroup in the automorphism group in the ambient weighted projective space. Also, we provide…

In this paper we consider convex co-compact subgroups of the projective linear group. We prove that such a group is relatively hyperbolic with respect to a collection of virtually Abelian subgroups of rank two if and only if each open face…

We present some results dealing with the local geometry of almost complex manifolds. We establish mainly the complete hyperbolicity of strictly pseudoconvex domains, the extension of plurisubharmonic functions through generic submanifolds…

We give a quasihomogeneity criterion for Gorenstein curves. For complete intersections, it is related to the first step of Vasconcelos' normalization algorithm. In the process, we give a simplified proof of the Kunz-Ruppert criterion.

We consider uniformly strongly elliptic systems of the second order with bounded coefficients. First, sufficient conditions for the invariance of convex bodies obtained for linear systems without zero order term in bounded domains and…
